Philippines school shooting: casualty counts diverge; no reconciliation from today’s coverage

BBC World reports a school shooting in the Philippines left three people dead and eight injured, and says the gunman — a 16-year-old student — was among the fatalities.

Al Jazeera reports a Philippines school shooting with at least two deaths.

From these two accounts as presented here, I cannot lock them to the same discrete incident (no shared time/place/school identifiers in the text I have), and the casualty counts do not match. I’m not going to merge them into a single factual version.
